Fracture of the anterior teeth by dental trauma is a common type of dental injury. Most of the times these injuries involve the maxillary incisors because of their position in the dental arch. It affects function and speech of patient as well as the emotional and psychological wellbeing due to aesthetic concerns. A conventional restoration using composite resin can fulfill the esthetic requirement, but the strength is still compromised. This has drawn the attention of the researchers to design a material which can replace dentin and reconstruct the tooth structure to it's optimal natural appearance and strength. This case report presents aesthetic rehabilitation of fractured vital maxillary anterior teeth (Ellis class II fracture) using fibre reinforced composite resin.
